Second Ebola patient

<p>

</p>

<p>It’s already happened. Louisiana refused to take Duncan’s waste which HAD been incinerated. They said there were “unanswered questions” about material which had been burned at 2100 degrees.</p>

<p>@frugaldoctor - I hope you’re still reading this thread. I got a special mailing from Partners in Health this week, explaining the outbreak and asking for money. I usually make my charitable contributions at the end of the year, but am reconsidering doing this one now. However, I know that other organizations have been on the front line of this outbreak in Liberia, such as MSF. Do you have any idea which organization would be most worthy of the money at this point? </p>

<p>

</p>

<p>You sure did. Serves me right for trying to keep up with this thread at work. :p</p>

<p>And garland and nrdsb4 posted the same link (not as our comment, a different one but each posted the same). Great minds think alike-- or try to share the same information. I feel really badly for that wedding dress shop if people are thinking she may have sweated on (or someone suggested, was menstruating) while trying on dresses. More spreading of incorrect info.</p>

<p>“Undoubtedly, a Bacon Czar is being chosen by the White House at this very moment.”</p>

<p>Wouldn’t surprise me. And they’d ptobably appoint a political hack who is a vegetarian.</p>

<p>LOL bus! </p>

<p>Pork is a sacred substance to politicians. Bacon Czar ain’t happening. ;)</p>

<p>Wow. This thread moves really fast! Have pages of posts to skim through!</p>

<p>Our kids have cafeteria workers who were vegetarians in elementary school. Our kids found the food thoroughly unpalatable and always came home starving. Unfortunately, they didn’t dislike the food enough to bring their own meals, but would always grumble about the awful food (it truly was bad the few times I ate it).</p>

<p>OK, sorry for the detour about vegetarian cooks–I do know some vegetarians that are awesome cooks as well–these were NOT! </p>

<p>Back to Ebola.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>True. AND, you can also choose to stop eating bacon. </p>

<p>And this is why all these other comparisons are just silly. No one is importing killer bacon that kills you in 10 days. And if someone were, you could choose not to buy it or eat it. Dying by bacon is a personal choice.</p>

<p>With Ebola, as a member of the general public, you are probably over a barrel no matter what you do.</p>

<p>How is it possible that I’m having cravings from reading a thread on Enola? Especially after the gross posts?</p>

<p>If they start messing with bacon, they will go down hard. Long live bacon!</p>

<p>I had to go pick up my dog from a kennel during rush hour and may have missed if someone already posted:</p>

<p>Amber Vinson’s mother spoke to a reporter and stated that her daughter was doing “okay.” Don’t know exactly what that means, but I guess it is much better than being told she is doing very poorly.</p>

<p>Have only read that Nina’s condition has been upgraded back to good from fair (it was good before she was transferred to NIH then went to fair). Haven’t read much about Amber.</p>

<p>@Nrdsb4 - jym626 reported that she’d been upgraded to good in #1812</p>

<p>Don’t forget that the cameraman got ebola. So not everyone who had it got it from cleaning up someone’s vomit, feces or blood. We don’t have all the answers yet and must keep looking. </p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Aren’t you a lawyer?</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>That was about Nina. My post refers to Amber Vinson, who has asked for full privacy. It was not an official status report, just a verbal from Mom.</p>

<p>Awww… sorry, wrong patient.</p>

<p>^^^Info is flying so fast, it’s hard to keep up with it all!</p>

<p>According to family and friends 10 hours ago, Amber is improving and walking around in her quarantined area. </p>

<p>^^^^That is good to hear.</p>
